Why the Hyphen Matters

On the Idea of Dis-Course. An adapted version of the opening remarks, on curiosity, disagreement and the value of intellectual encounter.

Ideas in public.
Across disciplines.

Dis-Course is an independent research platform connecting the public, students, universities, artists, architects and theorists.

Through public talks, panels and an open-access archive, it brings creative and academic inquiry into shared conversation. Its broadcasts are conceived as live public rehearsals of new ideas: connecting academic communities with an international public, and making room for questions as well as conclusions.
